Top Five Vehicles to Help Your Business

Picking vehicles for your business can seem like entering an exciting, but uncertain arena. Do you go for a vehicle that reflects your company values, or do you go for something that serves a more practical function, rather than using it for its image?

Whether you’re going for people-carriers or small pickup trucks, it’s important to first consider what the particular needs of your business are. You need to tread the fine line between image and practicality. This article features some examples for you.

Ford Focus

If you’re part of a young business that needs to concentrate on cash flow for now, you want to think about the resale value of the vehicles you purchase, so you can sell them off once the profits start rolling in, allowing you to upgrade your fleet.

For this purpose, the Ford Focus is ideal. It has enough space to carry a little extra cargo and has very good resale value.

Great Wall Steed

While they may not have the household name of the other manufacturers on this list, Great Wall sell millions of vehicles. You may have guessed it from the name, but this is China’s biggest manufacturer and it will have a growing presence on UK roads in the near future.

The Steed is Great Wall’s workhorse pickup, offering power and value for money. It’s ideal for contractors or those who work in agriculture and it is ludicrously good value for money for a 4x4.

Toyota Auris Hybrid

Probably the most stylish and sleek of Toyota’s eco-friendly fleet, the Auris is a must-have for businesses that want to project a modern image. It’s a vast improvement on previous models and a breath of fresh air.

Its winning function is the fact that its performance and engine have great economy value, while it also offers a lot of style. Your employees will be thankful too, as the lower emissions mean they will benefit in kind on their P11D, which will be much less than they imagined for such a stylish vehicle.

Hyundai i40 Estate

If travelling around with a group of people is a common occurrence in your business, but you also need space for cargo, the Hyundai i40 Estate is a great choice to make.

There is a lot of space inside and the seats are comfortable. Plus, it’s attractive and comes at a reasonable price.

Mazda6

For businesses seeking to lower their C02 emissions, the Mazda6 is a pretty good option. It’s environmentally focused without compromising on style or performance, which is why it’s proving to be so popular with businesses.

For its performance and price range, it beats other rivals purely for its style. It really stands out from the rest of its dull, boring peers.
